Vorpal Rabbit and Fortress Uncle

It's been a week or so since I practiced fighting Lacto. In the meantime, she didn't log in to the FPO. However, her technique of dual operation was officially dealt with in the timing of the scheduled maintenance that took place the other day.

In other words, the operation must have been able to successfully make contact with the lacto. Lacto's participation in the Izanami Project Executive Committee's research does not mean that she will retire without saying anything. For now, that's what I thought.

Hmmm. I guess we'll need another gene to increase the strength of the fruit after all.

You're not busy again, are you?

“It's rude. It's an important research study that will help the future.”

Even today, I was working with Kamil on a dirt road at a farm in the villa area of [Wadatsumi]. What we are cultivating is a plant that can convert the fruit into bullets as it is, but it is still not strong enough. It started to explode heavily when it hit hard, but now it explodes in the firearm as soon as it fires.

After all, we have to bring genes of strong plants like steel cedar.

"I, hello..."

"Whoa?"

As I twist my head, I hear a modest voice from the speakers in the park. It's through the intercom at the entrance to the farm. You can't mishear that voice. I leave it to Kamil to open the airtight explosion-proof isolation bulkhead door and go outside.

"Lacto! It's been a long time."

"It's been a long time."

There stood a little blue-haired girl. She was embarrassed and narrowed her blue eyes.

I've been waiting for her to dye her pale cheeks slightly red.

The lacto is tangled between your fingers with your hands in front of you. As I waited for her words, she slowly opened her mouth.

"S-So sorry for the inconvenience the other day....."

Nuisance?

Lacto's words were not what I expected. I remember when she used her dual operation. At that time, she was more honest in her emotions than usual, and to put it simply, she was young.

It's pseudo-similar to a drunken state. Therefore, there was a possibility that I had forgotten, but it seemed that my memories were still there.

"I don't think it's annoying."

Oh, really?

When I shake my head, Lacto asks me to check again and again.

"There wasn't something wrong with the lacto. Rather, it was fresh to see a new side of lacto.”

"Ugh. W-Well, you can forget about it!"

She regains a little tone and shouts out loud. Looking at it, I unexpectedly laugh.

“Besides, Lacto helped with the committee's research. Because of this, I heard that the efficiency of sending and receiving information has improved considerably."

"Really? I didn't do such a difficult thing..."

Lact looks strange.

The only thing she did with the lab's medical VR shell was a dual operation. That said, it's not something anyone can do, and that's why we can gather valuable data.

If you look at the lab, which is struggling to gather the subjects, a talent like her is like a blessing coming from the sky.

"Thanks to the lacto, it seems that the FPO also supports dual operation. You should be able to use it without worrying about it in the future."

Oh, I see. I guess that's good then.

Lacto laughs happily. Looking at her expression, I secretly stroke her chest.

“To be honest, I thought Lact might stop the FPO already.”

After being convinced that you no longer have that worry, you reveal your heart. She was not surprised and nodded at it.

"I honestly thought I might not be able to log in. I exposed myself to that ugliness on Ledge....."

Ugly?

Apparently, she and I were slightly different.

I thought that she might not want to come here again because of the load on her brain and her poor health in the game.

However, she is ashamed of the words and actions that she should say about her second self, which appeared due to the harm of dual operation rather than yours.

"That must be part of the lacto, too." Including that, I think it's the charm of Lacto. ”

Oh, I guess so.

Tell her to be brave.

In fact, it's one of hers. I was surprised, but that's not the reason for the idea of cutting the edge.

I don't think that kind of lacto would be a good idea anymore.

"I-I see. Hmm, I see..."

When I casually say it, she nods it over and over. It is sad to break up with her in such a tragic event.

"Well, then... even if you're a little more honest..."

She squints and whispers something.

I don't know what you're talking about, but I offered my hand for now.

That's why I'm still looking forward to Lacto.

If dual maneuvering is no longer a problem, it becomes a powerful weapon. Simply saying that you can use two Arts at the same time means that your strength will be doubled.

In the future, we will also be able to rely on it when we conquer the [Island of the Fangs of the Black Pig] and the field behind it.

"Hmph. Leave it to me." If I were here, I'd be a hundred strong. "

"Oh, please continue to do so."

I lightly stroked the head of the lacto, which had completely recovered its tone. I thought she was gone shortly after shaking on her soft hair, but she accepted it with narrowed eyes.

"Lacto...?"

"I don't feel uncomfortable having Ledge stroke my head." It's Fairy's privilege, isn't it? "

Having said that, she gave a cool smile.

"Ledge." The last Varlitain launch record has been voided, so I'd like to revenge you - Lacto!? N-No, what are you doing!? "

There comes Letty. When she sees me and Lacto, she jumps up with her eyes round.

With such provocative eyes, Lact grabbed my hand and fixed it on his head.

"I'm sorry, Letty. Reggie and I are going to [Black Pig's Fang Island]."

"What, what is it!?" Are you sure, Mr. Ledge! "

"Eh!? No, I just heard that."

I'm drowning out what I don't know. When she returned to me and looked at Lacto, she had the best, dazzling smile she had ever had.

"The previous date turned into Yaya." Let's go with the Revenge. "

"Hey ahhh!? Duhhh!? De, what do you mean by a date!?"

In contrast to the spare lacto, Letty is very disturbed. What are you in such a hurry, she's trembling from the tip of her ear to the tip of her tail.

"Come on, Ledge, let's go."

"Hey, Lact!?"

The lacto pulls his arm and moves away from the spot. Letty opened her mouth and was dumbfounded as if her soul was halfway out.

The side of the lacto pulling my arm is a little younger than usual. But it looks very enjoyable.

"Ledge, ledge!?" Lettie's coming too! I'll follow you! "

Letty, who had returned to me, was chasing after me. Lact raised his innocent voice and fastened his legs to escape from her.

What, are you going somewhere?

"I'm sorry, Kamil. I'll buy you a souvenir later."

Kamil, who understood the disturbance, uses the telephone to speak to me. When I asked her to clean up the farm, she was happy to take care of it.

I don't need any other souvenirs. Oh, but maybe the explosion-proof barrier door isn't strong enough, so buy me a new one. ”

"Ahh... again..."

This sturdy portal was built by Neva with the best of technology, but if we continue to improve our varieties, we will need to replace it because it will exceed its performance.

I've only just updated it, but I'm going to miss my pocket again. In order to earn capital costs, it is urgent to acquire a new field.

Ledge!?

I hear Letty calling out my name. The white moon, which was sleeping in the cool shade of the kitchen, also arose from the voice.

"Well then, Reggie, let's go."

Lacto, who was thoroughly prepared for battle, said with a vigorous face.

I unintentionally loosened my mouth and nodded.
